In western states, "use it or lose it" applies to surface-water rights — five consecutive years of non-use creates a presumption of abandonment in many jurisdictions. Right-holders who switched crops or fallowed land without protective filings can find their water right reduced or extinguished without ever receiving notice.
Water rights are often the single most valuable asset attached to agricultural land, sometimes exceeding the land value itself. Quietly losing them through non-use is one of the most expensive avoidable errors.
Programs like CRP, EQIP, and CSP require continued maintenance of the baseline conservation practices that earned the payment. Cessation of the practice — or implementing a different practice without an approved modification — can trigger payment refund and program ineligibility for the contract balance.
Refunds plus interest can exceed the value of the practice abandoned. The exit cost is the calculation that should drive the entry decision.
